Just because it's possible doesn't mean it is clearly the answer. Is a transformer model truly likely to require less compute than current methods? We can't even run models like Veo 3 on consumer hardware at their current lev

Completely agree here. My company interviews for and hires based on soft skills. Yeah, certain hard skills help. I don't want to teach you excel or basic computer skills. But we work in data analytics/marketing and my coworkers co

One of the only, if not the only, persons at my company without a degree. On the fast track to director, and currently in senior management. I'm not downplaying degrees, but not all fields need one.

Chelated supplements are, generally, more bioavailable than their oxidized counterparts because they are bound to nutrients for which you have transporters. Like amino acids, for instance. Supplements are absolutely regulated. To say otherw

That's a backfire. You're right in that a muffler can diminish the volume of a backfire, and that it is caused by combustion in the exhaust. But the incomplete ignition of fuel can occur in both stock and modified vehicles. My car

Mufflers do not impact emissions. In the case of gasoline cars, there are mechanisms for controlling intake air, recirculating exhaust gas, and filtering emissions directly out of the exhaust gases. All of these impact carbon emissions. The
